Hydrogen Comic smoke billowing
up from their Kingdom—
Grauman’s Chinese Theater’s drab sidewalk front’s
concrete footprints, stood there
stupid, anal, exciting
upside down, Crosseyed moviestar’d
I craned my neck at Myrna Loy & Shirley Temple shoe-marks—
Raccoon crouched at road-edge, praying—
Carlights pass—

the money’s going to the politicians
